Hello guys, Setup: iptables 1.2.9 (patch-o-matic not used) linux 2.4.25 (gentoo vanilla, everything needed compiled in) eth1 -> pppoe (ppp0) eth0 Goal: Fair queuing of incomming traffic Story: since I've failed to use IMQ with iptables 1.2.9 and linux 2.4.25, I've tried to attach a HTB qdisc to eth0 with a root of 100mbit and classes with rates of 100mbit and DSL downlink speed (768 kbit). The downlink class I divided into important traffic (700 kbit) and bulk (68 kbit) - both got HTB qdiscs. The router packets with source 10.0.0.1 end up in the 100mbit queue, but I have to set this rule to prio 1 otherwise the bulk rule (src 0.0.0.0/0) will take place. Everything is working fine so far. Since I wanted to speed up browsing while having other downloads, packets with sport 80 are queued in the important queue. Also I wanted to be very smart and use a transparent squid. But then I thought twice and realized, that packets with sport 80 end up in squid (except it was a direct connection), thus the packets are queued different. Question is now: do I also have to add qdiscs to device lo, or how can I queue the router's incomming traffic for routers's local processes. If I have to add qdiscs for lo, what would be the bandwidth? And, would that be clever in general? If someone is interessted in the script, drop a note.
